telegram to the New York Herald from At

1t is not unlikely that the famous Glenn coeduca-

which has received annually substantial pecuniary
encouragement from the State, has had its appli-
cation for funds denied under resolution adopted
by the legislature on the ground that continues

plan or expenditure can be adopted as Will secure

No Presidential Fight for George.

1T WILL COST TOO MUCH MoNEY-wHAr HIS PARTY
PROPOSES TO DO.
Henry George has definitely decided not to be a
candidate for the Presidency next year and not to
put the United Labor Party into the campaign
Mr.. George, however, favors a campaign In New
York State next year. He thinks a Presidential
campaign would cost his party too much money
Being asked, "What would be your own idea as
TO utilizing such strength as You have In case you
do not run separate ticket?' he answered: at
would be my plan to make alliances In a way that
should seem most advisable. For instance, II one
OF the parties should take square position upon
the tariff question, we should ind 1t judciouS to
side with that party which favOrS free trade and
the elements OF our cause"
"Do you think that the rank and file OF your
party Is so well grounded In the principles of free
trade that you could swing them upon that issue,
and depend upon their votes being cast for the can
didate and the platform that represent lit"
'Oh, most certainly do" said Mr.. George en-
phatcally. 81 think that nearly all OF the voters
OF the united labor party are free traders and that
they would see the advisability OF supporting
other party on that doctrine Tor year. and wait
for another campaign before attempting to show
individual strength. You soc, the question Is
rather hazy at present; but STILL as l say the
indications are that our policy will be In the line

A Millionaire Milliner.

From the Cincinnati Times-Star.
A well-known Cincinnatian was over In Kansas
City one day last week. opening his eyes to the
almost fabulous stories OF accumulated wealth
which are there, on everybody's tongue. He tells
OF one lady who was formerly miiliner IN Mays
vile, KY, and migrated to Kansas City ten or
fifteen years ago. She began In Kansas City the
business she had followed in Kentucky, and was
more or less successful until old mud hole on
one OF the streets OF the city fell to her in Quida
ton OF s., 500 debt. This the lady accepted with
great deal Of reluctance and with the shedding
OF many tears, since she did not believe the prop
erty TO be worth half the money 1t had cost
her. She, however, finally rallied from the
discouragement and refused o cash offer for the
over half the s, 500 About . year ago q rich

street and 80 feet ON the other. They purchased
lots on each side OF this corner and then mad lot
in the shape OF capital L. They wanted her lot
and offered her $l25, 900 FOR 1t. She refused and
they kept raising the offer until they reached the
enormous sum or $500. 900. still she refused, and
then she supplemented the refusal with the
statement 'GentleInen, you go ahead and put
up your building, and no matter how high you
go III build on my lot one story higher than you
do. I'm going 10 raise monument to myself
right on that corner" And, 1t is said. next sum
mer she Will keep her word The 81 OOO, 900 build

The little two-stOry building which the milliner
owns on the corner, and which she will tear down
TO build greater, nets her an annual income In
